The hot-hitting Phillies take on the Milwaukee Brewers this weekend, who currently lead the NL Central. Steve Drumwright of Pitcher List and Brewer Fanatic stops by to deliver a Brewers scouting report, and Justin Klugh and Liz Roscher talk about the Phillies' recent trade for a center fielder.
The 2026 baseball season hasn't really gone according to plan for the Boston Red Sox so far. With high expectations that their young core group of players would take the next step and lead the team to a better season than 2025, that has not been the case. Even after firing manager Alex Cora, the team hasn't seen much of a boost, with many wondering if it's getting late early for the Red Sox. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the complete disappointment coming out of Boston so far and who is to blame for the mess the Red Sox currently find themselves in. They then get into whether there is a chance the team could become major players at the trade deadline, but as unexpected sellers, and why there is such a disconnect in messaging between the front office and the fans. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the Chicago White Sox surprisingly finding themselves in first place in the AL Central and how sustainable the winning — and the good vibes they're bringing to Chicago fans — actually is. The guys then get into Tarik Skubal's scheduled return to the Detroit Tigers this weekend, Shohei Ohtani being removed from a game due to injury and preview the College World Series. They close out the show by making their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla. 1:28 - The Opener: Red Sox disaster 24:15 - Kind of a Big Deal: White Sox in 1st place 37:43 - Around The League: Skubal set to return 44:18 - Notable recent injuries 47:03 - We Need To Talk About: College World Series preview 53:46 - The Good, The Bad & The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
Braden Montgomery arrived, and this team team continues to get stronger and stronger. The first-place White Sox are riding high with a distinct formula for success, but there is a monster hiding under the bed. Should Sox fans be worried about it? Video version on YouTube!

Episode 171 of Tablesetters is LIVE! We open with the first place Chicago White Sox, who suddenly sit atop the AL Central at 36-31 after starting the season 6-13. We break down whether this surge is actually sustainable, how Chicago has gone 29-17 since April 18, why their top-five offense has changed the entire outlook, and how Munetaka Murakami, Colson Montgomery, Miguel Vargas, Davis Martin, and top prospect Braden Montgomery have turned the White Sox into one of baseball's best stories. From there, we dive into Bryce Eldridge's unbelievable signature moment in San Francisco. Just two days after striking out with a chance to tie the game, the 21-year-old rookie launched an ultimate grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to complete an 11-10 Giants comeback over the Nationals. We discuss the Giants erasing a 9-1 deficit, Eldridge becoming the youngest player in MLB history to hit a walk-off grand slam, Matt Chapman's monster game, and one of the most improbable wins in franchise history. We also discuss Ronald Acuña Jr. landing back on the injured list with another Grade 1 left hamstring strain, what it means for the Braves, and the bigger question of whether he is still a superstar. Acuña's 2023 MVP résumé is undeniable, but with two IL stints this season, multiple major injuries since 2021, and current numbers below his usual standard, the conversation has shifted from talent to availability. Plus, Drew Rasmussen dominates the Red Sox with a career-high 13 strikeouts over seven shutout innings, Max Scherzer reaches 3,500 career strikeouts while his season-long struggles continue, the Athletics and Brewers turn Las Vegas Ballpark into a launching pad, Dalton Rushing's villain reputation grows after another controversial slide, and we make our official Men's College World Series picks with Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, West Virginia, Texas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Troy all fighting for Omaha.
The White Sox were in first place by percentage points via Cleveland loss earlier in the day, but the Sox Populi crew of Brett Ballantini, Chrystal O'Keefe and Melissa Sage-Bollenbach were going to make the team earn a celebratory postgame podcast with a win over vaunted Atlanta — and win they did, 2-1, moving a full half-game into first. It's the first time the White Sox have been in first place past April 15 since 2022, and the first time atop the division in a meaningful way since 2021. The trio spoke of the surprises of the season, favorite players to watch — and fears, if any, lurking on the road ahead. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Hour 2 of the Marc Cox Morning Show delivers the stories that matter most to conservative St. Louis — and pulls no punches. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins drops staggering numbers on food stamp fraud: 200,000 dead people collecting benefits, half a million double-dipping, and blue states stonewalling every attempt at accountability. The St. Louis Morning Brief brings the chaos home — a Sky Zone brawl that spilled into Walmart with rocks flying at police, a 12-year-old with a kitchen knife in an Uber, the Festus city council ignoring thousands of recall petition signatures, and the Missouri income tax repeal headed to August voters. Then Kim St. Onge takes center stage with the Missouri Broadcasters Award-winning interview — Diane Foley, mother of slain journalist James Foley, on her one-woman mission to bring wrongfully detained Americans home. And In Other News closes the hour with grizzly bear attacks, a McDonald's worker fighting for his life, and Diane Keaton's estate going to the highest bidder. Two hours down, two to go — and it only gets better.

Pastor Jared Richard opens by grounding the Ten Commandments in the framework Jesus gives in Matthew 22:37-40 — that all of the law hangs on loving God and loving your neighbor. With that lens in place, Pastor Jared turns to Exodus 20 and makes clear that the commandments are not a God-given checklist to earn His acceptance. Rather, they are expressions of love — a loving response to a God who has already acted to save His people. The first four commandments teach us to love God, and the last six teach us to love our neighbor, together showing what it means to live as the people of God in a broken world. The heart of the sermon focuses on the First Commandment and four key questions surrounding it: why God is worthy of worship, how He demands to be worshiped, why His people struggle to give it, and what happens when they fail. God's worthiness flows from who He is — the great I AM, the Lord Almighty, and the personal covenant God who brought His people out of Egypt. He demands exclusive worship, describing Himself in Exodus 34:14 as a jealous God, not out of sinful jealousy, but because He alone deserves it and because it is genuinely good for His people to give it. Yet like Israel who built a golden calf in Exodus 32, God's people then and now are prone to replacing Him with more manageable idols — careers, relationships, security, and success — whenever fear or impatience sets in. Pastor Jared closes with the Gospel as the only resolution to this dilemma. The penalty for broken worship is death, as seen throughout the Old Testament, and none of us have loved God with all our heart, soul, and mind as He deserves. But Jesus is the only one who perfectly obeyed the First Commandment, and He took our penalty of death upon Himself. As Romans 8 reminds us, "There is therefore now no condemnation" for those who are in Christ. Jesus not only frees us from the penalty of false worship — He gives us new hearts for true worship, restoring us to the life of undivided devotion to God we were created for.

What are the most common reasons a dental practice reaches out to the Dental A-Team? In this episode, Tiff and Kristy discuss those woes of an office (systems, lack of team alignment, metrics, etc.) that lead doctors to ask for help, and how consultants can turn the sometimes-dreaded details and numbers into a story that everyone in the practice can rally behind. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello Dental A Team listeners. We are back here today with, we used to have this consultant takeover and I kinda like that. We are taking over the podcast, but we take over the podcast often, so I think we did away with that title. But I'm bringing it back today. Kristy, I like consultant takeover. How are you over there and how do you feel about consultant takeover? The Dental A Team (00:19) Absolutely. I'm doing good today. It's a Tuesday, so it's a weird day for us to be podcasting, but I'm just grateful for the time and to be able to help our listeners give some tips. It's always a fun time when we can get together and podcast. The Dental A Team (00:34) I agree. I agree. It is a weird day and I kind of at the same time love it because I feel like I've had some consulting already today. So my brain is fresh on the consulting mindset. Not that I ever leave the consulting mindset. You can ask my son anytime we go anywhere. I'm like, okay, if they would have just said it this way or if they would have just reminded us this way, like I'm always consulting, but I agree. And Tuesday is an odd day for this. ⁓ Listeners, I hope that you have listened to a few podcasts. I think this is actually a really great follow-up. It's a separate podcast, so it's not like a two-part series, but I really do think that this is a wonderful follow-up to a podcast that Kristy and I have previously recorded about the top four KPIs. And today we really, really wanna talk about the story behind the results. And first I want to... consider the reasoning behind tracking metrics. Why are we tracking metrics? And I think that will lead to the story. And I guess even before that, really I wanna talk about the woes of an office, the pieces that lead us to consulting, the pieces that lead doctors to say, please help me, I'm not sure what's going on anymore, or to say more likely, please give us systems, train my team on the systems. And we say, cool, you have systems, let's figure out what's working and what's not working. So Kristy, I think first let's highlight some of the reasons that we recommend tracking metrics because that will allow you doctors here listening, you team members here listening to really see where you fit into the puzzle and why this is valuable information for you as well. Kristy, I think some of the reasons that I can think off the top of my head or some of the things that come to us are lack of accountability, right? Our team doesn't understand what they're supposed to be doing or they're not doing what they're supposed to be doing. I think payroll, I hear payroll is high. I hear cashflow, I don't have any cash. I don't know where my money's going. My money's not working for me. The Dental A Team (02:34) Thank The Dental A Team (02:53) What else? What else do you hear, Kristy? What are some reasons that you recommend? The Dental A Team (02:59) Yeah. Well, first of all, I think it helps team understand their role and their part in the bigger piece of the office. You know, it's not we we do win together, but each of us, if we have things that we can champion and feel a part of something, ⁓ I think I see better results overall with teams and The Dental A Team (02:59) KPI tracking. The Dental A Team (03:28) When teams have clarity and they have understanding of a metric to know if it's a healthy metric or not, they feel empowered to ⁓ go to the next level too. Otherwise, truly it's when we see them, they say, my team's just clocking in and going through the motions. It's because they don't really know their part and what they're responsible for and truly if they're on target or not. The Dental A Team (03:53) Mm hmm. I agree. I agree. Yeah. So doctors coming and saying, again, like our team's not in alignment, our team's not doing what they're supposed to be doing. Yeah, I agree. And then we've got some team members will come and they'll say, I'm not fulfilled in my position. I want growth. I want to make more money. I want to understand more about what the practice needs to be successful. I have a lot of my office managers that just want to understand. We have a lot of doctors who come to us and say, want to learn how to run my business. I want to have a personal life and not just a practice. I want to get home earlier. If you guys are falling into any of those spaces or insert your own reasoning, this information is for you. doctors and team members alike, I want you all to understand if you're here today and you're like, go numbers, heck yeah, I love numbers, phenomenal, welcome, we're here for you. And if you're here today like Tiff, Kristy, I don't wanna talk about numbers, they make me uncomfortable. We're in a healthcare field. We're here to help people not to talk about money. Welcome, we're here for you. And I am here to dispel that mindset. I'm here to make sure that you understand the importance behind the numbers and the importance behind your practice staying in business. My opinion is, and maybe it's crazy, My opinion is if you're not paying attention to your success and your failures, you don't know where you're going, where you've been, or what the gap is in between, where are you going to be in one, two, five, 10, 20 years? And if you're not still here because you didn't pay attention and because you didn't have goals, because you didn't know where you were going, you didn't know how to successfully run and grow a business, how many patients that you're here to help, me and Sirthat, are left behind in the dust with maybe somewhere to go. I've known a lot of patients who have come to my dental practice I worked at for years that say, you know, I haven't been to the dentist in 10 years. Why? What held you back? Well, my dentist, you know, he retired or he moved. They switched ownership and I just didn't know what to do. I never found another dentist. ⁓ Break my heart. Like gosh, we preach that we're here to help people, but we're afraid to look at the success on helping those people and we're afraid to make sure that we're here for a long time. And in order to ensure that we're here for a long time, financially, the practice has to be secure. There's no ifs, ands, or buts around it. The practice has to be financially secure. You have to continuously be growing. and you have to be in a growth mindset. Or just cut through the crap and call the BS and say, I don't really care what happens. If you care, you also have to care about your numbers. And that may be an opinion that you don't love today. I challenge you to come back in a week and re-listen. Tell me if you still feel that way. Great, let's have a conversation. But I truly believe with everything that I have, if we're actually here to help people, we are gonna do everything we can to ensure that I'm here for a long time to help as many people as I can because I believe in what gifts I have to give to this world. And if you believe that, today's conversation is gonna be incredible for you. So, Kristy, today we wanna talk about how the results tell the story. And I think everything I just said is the story, right? The way they're thriving. We're surviving, we're thriving, or we're dying, right? I wanna be in that middle, that thriving. I really wanna thrive. I've survived for a long time. I personally, professionally have survived for a long time. And I think everyone gets to the point where it's like survival is enough, survival is fine, but thriving is really freaking exciting and it's so cool. And I'm ready to thrive. Tell me how you help practices see their results. and the story there within. Because like I said in a couple podcasts, but more recently the one we just did together, you love results. You love tracking metrics and you love helping practices see their successes. And you really do a great job of pouring into them on a, gosh, like a leadership personal just love space. You pour into them. and you do that within their results and you see those stories. So I want you to really walk through some of those stories that you see within the results and how do you help practices to be able to read and see those stories themselves. The Dental A Team (08:44) Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, I think we're in a unique situation because we're in healthcare, right? And we are already our compassionate, caring people. I was just in office and I was saying this to one of my teams. I don't think I've ever been in a practice that didn't have someone with those characteristics. And if I was, they weren't there the next time I came back for sure. ⁓ And so with that, you know, to your point earlier, Tiff, I think that we need to get over the fact that we are a for-profit business. Because again, along those lines, I've never seen an employee that said, don't need a paycheck or that I don't need a raise. I'm okay with what I'm making. So with that being said, I challenge how you look at it from the onset. But with that, think truly because we're compassionate and caring and we get to do what we do and help people, The Dental A Team (09:37) Mm-hmm. The Dental A Team (09:55) The money just follows when you're doing the right thing. So I truly like to take a step back and ask my teams, how do you define a healthy patient? Let's start there. How do you define a healthy patient? And again, we're never gonna do 100 % of the treatment on all the people that we see or that we recommend treatment on. But if there's people walking out the door that don't get treatment done, There's opportunity. There's opportunity to grow and to, again, gamify it, get your patients healthy, and the money follows, if that makes sense. So to me, it all pivots around getting centered on what's our intention, what's our why for doing what we're doing, and then we build around it. The Dental A Team (10:35) Mm-hmm. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I agree. Thank you for that. And I love that you said that like the intentionality I love intentionality and I think when you do know your why and when you do know what you're going for it's much easier to see When the story is right for you I within your results and I totally agree with that. I think when we set our goals They give us a journey to take they give us the path Right, so we know our why, we know our reasons and we say, okay, great, these are our goals. This is a production goal, this is our collections goal. In order to meet those, we need this as our benchmark for our case diagnosis and treatment acceptance. This is how many new patients we're gonna need to see in the practice in order to obtain that much diagnosis. All of these pieces lead into one another and the results there within tell us if the systems that we're utilizing The Dental A Team (11:15) Thank you. The Dental A Team (11:42) are getting us to those results. So we know in order to stay in business, we need X amount of dollars. In order to continue to grow and stay in business, we also need this on top of that. So we know what our bare minimum is, we know what our profit margins are, we know what it means to thrive in dentistry and business. Now we have to say, okay, how do we hit that? What are the ⁓ systems that are gonna hit these goals with us? And those stories, I think, I'm pivot for us just a stitch. 99.9 % of the practices that come to the Dental A Team, come to the Dental A Team, and they say, I need to be systematized. We need systems. We need systems. And I love it, because I'm like, awesome, slam dunk, I get to win, because guess what, you have systems. We get to sift through and say what systems are working for you. The Dental A Team (12:16) Yeah. The Dental A Team (12:39) and what systems need to be tweaked and revamped, or maybe just thrown out and something new made, or maybe it's an old system that doesn't need to be used. Those results within those metrics are that story. So if we're not able to hit our case acceptance, or we're not diagnosing enough, and our doctor's like, I don't know, I'm getting enough new patients, just, I'm not diagnosing enough, I don't have enough time in the room, our team is saying, gosh, my doctor's so rushed, and. The Dental A Team (12:54) Mm-hmm. The Dental A Team (13:09) takes him forever to get into my exam, and then when he's in the exam, he's like so quick, and he's not even present, and he's not diagnosing, but I saw all of this stuff. That's a story, right? So my results was off. So my results not hitting the target. We're not getting the diagnosis that we need, and we're probably not getting the case acceptance on the limited diagnosis that we have. So we say why. We don't say go, go, go, go, go, do more, do better. We say why. is this happening? And if we work backwards from that and we unravel and layer the story, we start to see the systems that need to be improved in order to get a different result. That's where the story really lies, is that it is in the results. The result is the story and we say, cool, that's what we got. Now, how can we do something different to get a different result? And I think without The Dental A Team (13:56) Yeah. The Dental A Team (14:07) unraveling that story, we're literally living the definition of insanity. We're just saying, okay, better luck next time. Next month we're gonna do better. We got more new patients. We got more diagnosis. Our case acceptance is still mediocre, but we're gonna get there. High five, guys. Next month we're gonna do better. Unraveling it and finding the story within the metric is the key. Kristy, I know you've done this a million times too. When the practice comes in, I say, well, great, I can give you a cookbook. I can give you an A to Z of what I think a dental office should look like. I can scratch start you a dental office, 100%. I can scratch start you a dental office. But you might not need that because you've been successful enough to find the Dental A Team. If you guys are here listening, my dental practices that I work with all the time, you've heard me say this, you know what I'm about to say. The Dental A Team (14:41) you The Dental A Team (15:02) I say it all the time, the practices that the Dental A Team attracts are successful practices. We do not attract practices that aren't ready to get to that next level, that aren't already doing incredible things. We attract the practices that know there's more out there, that know there's a missing piece, that there's a blind spot within their view, that they just need that extra set of eyes, they need that expertise that says, my gosh, Cool, tweak this. I think of implants, Kristy, and torquing implants because I can come in and I can give you a full torque and I can say, it's in now. It's totally in, it's in, right? But it might be too in. It might be way too in. Or we can take a step back and really look at how minor. The Dental A Team (15:38) Yeah. I'm The Dental A Team (15:56) the torque needs to be and those little small incremental torques to get the implant where it needs to be is how we place an implant. We don't just go full blown, drill it in, 10 minutes you're out. We're taking our time and we're finding it. And I think, Kristy, when I think about results tell the story, it's more of like a, for me, it's just that unraveling. It's asking more questions. It's being in the why, being in the like, open-minded, curious. Yeah, you say that all the time. Being curious and saying, happened here to create this result? There's nothing, I'm not mad. actually am completely indifferent. I'm completely indifferent and I'm just curious. Cool, that's what happened. How do we get something different? The Dental A Team (16:24) I you. Yep. I'm with you Tiff. I like to really simplify it because like you said, the numbers tell a story and if the story isn't what we want it to read, then we dig in. And I like to simplify it and think of two different things. It's either process or people. And when I say people, I don't mean that ugly. I mean, you mentioned the recipe. Did I myself decide I'm going to change a cup of sugar for a cup of salt? and then say their recipe doesn't work. So whenever the metric isn't where we want it, let's pull out that system and revisit it. Because nine times out of 10, what I hear my clients say is, my gosh, why did we ever stop doing that? ⁓ Earlier when we were talking and we were talking like case acceptance and whatnot, literally ⁓ what popped in my head was James Clear and forming a habit because it's usually one step, right? The Dental A Team (17:27) Yeah. The Dental A Team (17:40) One easy tool, like if you're talking case acceptance, is do we take four pictures every patient, every time? Just by doing that, you're going to find things that maybe you didn't find before. And when we pull out the recipe of cases except as where we want it, and we're like, yeah, why did we stop taking those pictures? Right? So again, people in process, we don't have to be hard. It can be very, very simple. The Dental A Team (18:06) Yeah, Brittany here on our team, No BS Brit, you guys know her, our HR guru. She likes to say choose your heart. It's one of my favorite things. She said that one day like, I don't know, six years ago, I don't even know. I was so long ago and it changed my life. I was like, ⁓ my gosh, yes, choose your heart. And it works for anything. Is it more difficult to track these metrics right now and see the results? The Dental A Team (18:11) Thank you. The Dental A Team (18:34) Or is it more difficult to, in the long run, continue running the definition of insanity and wondering why things aren't working? Right? So yeah, you're gonna have to implement change. You're gonna have to implement something that feels hard right now. But it's going to create ease for the long term, right? So for me, I think, do I want hard for a short amount of time that creates ease for a long amount of time? Or do I want The Dental A Team (18:41) Yeah. Mm-hmm. The Dental A Team (19:02) to choose the easiest route right now knowing that this is gonna cause heart again later. The Dental A Team (19:08) for agree with you, Tip 100%. And you know what? Something that keeps popping in my mind, again, because there's this, I swear, taboo around the numbers, we're missing the opportunity to celebrate when things go well, just because we're so reluctant to look at the numbers. And I think that's huge in our day. And again, especially in dentistry, we're in the field of looking for things that are wrong in the mouth. The Dental A Team (19:26) I love that. The Dental A Team (19:36) And so to be able to have those metrics and when we're succeeding, to be able to celebrate as a team and go, wow, look at the difference we're making. Like, I hope that you guys choose, because it is a choice to look at those numbers differently and really celebrate. Because like you said, Tiff, most of our clients coming in really do have a lot of things going well. It's just how do I get to that next level or how do I get to that next benchmark that I'm trying to get to? The Dental A Team (20:05) I agree. I love that. think that's like a drop the mic. yourself space to also celebrate because you are, keeping yourself from celebrating, you're keeping your team from celebrating and humanity wants to feel accomplished. We wanna feel like we're working towards something, right? My fiance has this theory that a man without a purpose is desolate, is no man at all, right? A man without a purpose has nowhere to go and eventually will just fade out into nothing, right? And I can't disagree with that because when we don't know what we're working for, when we have nothing we're working for, why would I be inspired to work? What's making me do this if I have no goal? Like there's just, it's just human nature to need a goal. And when we can see that, we can build the path to get there. So I love that you said that and I love just giving purpose to life in the best ways we possibly can. The Dental A Team (21:09) Yeah. And I think to your point, Tiff, that is why I like to start with that North Star of why are we doing what we're doing, because then tying it to the goal really does create more purpose and meaning for us when we're doing it and when we achieve it, right? The Dental A Team (21:26) Yeah, yeah, and I think also, I totally agree, and I think also on top of that, taking it outside of even the patient's health, because yeah, sure, okay, we have a dental office because we want patients to be healthy, cool. Is that why you have a dental office? Because you want patients to be healthy? Probably not, like cool, I want everyone to be healthy. Like, no you don't, you wanna help people. You wanna show people the path to being better, to living longer, to having happier lives. You wanna give people a path. to smile more often. How inspiring is that? Their health aside, like I'm gonna call it frank. You don't care really about their dental health. You care about them as a human and how they show up in the world. You wanna give them a path to being a better person. That's what your why is. ⁓ Tell me that is not more inspiring than helping people live healthier lives. Right, like cool. Yeah. The Dental A Team (22:21) Yeah, 100%. Yeah, I agree with you, Tiff, because truly when we get down to it, we always talk about the patient motivators, right? And sometimes that motivation is cosmetic because they want confidence to smile. And that is a different kind of health. That's an emotional health, right? It's so different. But yeah, you're spot on. You nailed it. The Dental A Team (22:40) Absolutely. And what's your emotional ROI? If you're not emotionally healthy, are you going to the doctor to figure out what's wrong with your hormones and why you're just not right? No, you might not have any decay in your mouth. That's cool. Awesome. Cool. But if I can help inspire you to live your best life through your smile, whether it's cosmetic, whether it's knowing that your gums are healthy, whether it's just saying, hey, you have a freaking awesome smile, and you walk out those doors more confidently, I've done my due diligence, I have done my service. So what is it that's actually driving you to want your patients to be quote unquote healthier? Like yeah, you're providing that service, but that's a service. Why did you choose to provide that service? The Dental A Team (23:26) Yeah. It's funny that you said that tip because my mind went to, ⁓ always shy away from the money part of it, and that's what patients are buying, right? And so I hope you choose to look at that differently too, because people will spend infinite amount of money to get exactly what you're talking about, right? The Dental A Team (23:38) Yeah. Girl, I just heard somebody say they paid $2,500 for hair extensions. Hair extensions, yeah. If for my male dentists out there, my doctor's listening that may not be women who are up to par with what a hair extension is, go look that up. $2,500 to have longer hair. Yeah, yeah, go treatment plan that crown. Yeah, go treatment plan that crown, because you know what? They're spending it on hair. The Dental A Team (23:52) ⁓ gosh, yeah. Most of them are your crowns. The Dental A Team (24:15) and eyelashes and Botox and filler and the list goes on. So you are a piece of that confidence too and you need to hold yourself to that standard. So go measure your results. That was a fun one. Thank you for letting me get on a little pedestal tangent, whatever you wanna call it. I enjoyed it. Kristy, thank you for helping us lead that path. And gosh, action items. Like go, we... Go listen to the podcast with the top four KPIs if you haven't listened to it yet. If you're already tracking KPIs, like, yeah, Tiff, I got this. Kristy, what else do I track? Then reach out to us, but start looking for those pieces and start looking for those stories if you're already tracking. What's that next layer? That next layer might be just unraveling some of the stories there within instead of tacking on more just yet. So take a look at them, find your stories. Reach out to us, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. We will help unravel stories for you all day long. And we will also help suggest any new KPIs if you're at a point where you're like, cool, what's my next level of KPIs? We're here for it. Drop us a five star review below, especially if you loved our tangent. We love hearing that. We are emotional beings at the end of the day. And when you're ready to really look in and dive in and see what are some gaps that I might have in my practice, please head over to our website, TheDentalATeam.com. take our free assessment, meet with our team. We're here to help you whether you say yes, I want consulting and I want to have Kristy in my office or Nikki in my office or Pam in my office, whomever it may be, Trish, whoever, whether you're ready to say yes to that or not, at least let us help you see some of those gaps where you can move forward with or without us.

Why IBM Is Betting Everything on Small AI Models In this episode of Eye on AI, Craig Smith sits down with Sriram Raghavan, Vice President of AI at IBM Research, to explore one of the most important debates in enterprise AI right now. Do you actually need a massive model to get world class results? IBM's answer is no, and Sriram breaks down exactly why. Sriram explains why IBM chose to train its Granite models directly using reinforcement learning rather than distilling from larger models like most of the industry. The reason goes beyond performance. It comes down to data lineage, safety alignment, and a belief that small, efficient models are the only sustainable path for enterprises running AI across hybrid cloud environments. We get into the full technical stack behind that bet. How data quality has replaced model size as the real competitive advantage. Why parameter count is becoming the wrong metric entirely. How IBM's inference time scaling techniques allow an 8 billion parameter model to match the performance of GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 on code and math benchmarks. And why IBM is pioneering a new concept called Generative Computing, which treats AI models not as prompt receivers but as programmable computing elements with runtimes, modular LoRA adapters, and proper programming abstractions. Sriram also shares where IBM Research is headed next, including breakthroughs in continuous learning, agent orchestration, and making unstructured enterprise data actually usable at scale.

Date: 4/15/26Name of podcast: Dr. PatientEpisode title and number: 30 Prevent Illness in the First PlaceEpisode summary: Preventive healthcare involves trying to keep illness from occurring, and trying to catch diseases early on in their process. It has a long history of success as an overall health approach, but less and less adults in the US are utilizing it and seeing a primary care provider.

The Pirates are in first place, and on this episode of Bucco Brew we're breaking down how they got there, what looks real, and what still feels shaky. There is a lot to like right now, from the overall start to the energy around this team, but the bullpen usage and recent struggles are impossible to ignore. We dive into the biggest reasons the Pirates have climbed to the top of the division, whether this start feels sustainable, and how much concern fans should have about the relief corps moving forward. If the Pirates are going to stay in first, this bullpen conversation is not going away. Powered by De Fer Coffee & Tea. Use promo code NS9 for 30% off.

It's election day in Missouri and the earnings tax in KCMO is in focus and maybe that's appropriate after a new Wall Street Journal piece on spending in KC. $650 million are being spent for the World Cup to play a handful of matches at Arrowhead. And we are now getting our first reports that not nearly as many people are coming as thought. Who could have guessed? The Royals beat Cleveland and eye an early seat in first place. Michigan wins the national title in college hoops in the ugliest game you've ever seen. Travis Kelce has his hands full as his future wife is meeting her crazy girlfriends in LA and Nashville to plan trips with her girls to Italy, the Bahamas and New York BEFORE their June 13 wedding. Oh, brother. Trump's deadline for Iran is later today even as the US is hitting Kargh Island. Maybe that's the real strategy. Savannah Guthrie returns to work, our astronauts have frozen pee and CBS announces plans to replace The Late Show.
